Lemon-flavored chicken is a simple and light main course with a fresh and citrusy taste, ideal for a dinner with guests or Sunday lunch. The air fryer cooking makes it even more tender and juicy inside and well browned and crispy outside. The most important process is the marination, which should be 24 hours in the refrigerator. First, prepare an emulsion with the juice of one lemon, 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, salt, and pepper. Transfer the thighs to a container or baking dish, pour it over the chicken, and massage it to evenly distribute the emulsion. Cover it with plastic wrap and store it in the refrigerator for 24 hours. After the resting time, cook using the Air Fry mode for 30 minutes at 428°F, directly in the pan.
Turn the chicken halfway through cooking to improve browning.

You can accompany the chicken with a nice side of mixed salad or grilled vegetables, or with crispy potatoes also cooked in the air fryer.
